Compton, England - March 9, 2019: the Watts Chapel is the work of Mary Watts, artist and wife of George Frederic Watts (one of the most celebrated artists of the second half of the 19th century), and the people of Compton in Surrey. It was designed in 1895 and eventually consecrated in 1898. It is built in brick and decorated with beautiful terracotta reliefs, created at the Watts' house and pottery very close by using local clay. The photograph shows the central band running around the extraordinary interior decorated in 1901 in coloured gesso relief by Mary Watts and around 80 members of the local community in a largely Art Nouveau style with complex symbolism, including Celtic influences. The figures on the walls include angels, surrounded by cherubs' heads on the ribs of the vault; a 'Tree of Life' in gesso runs throughout the decorative scheme. It remains a working village parish chapel, having been given to the people of Compton by Mary and G F Watts, both of whom are buried in the cemetery in which the building is located. The Watts Chapel is open to the public without charge.
This international landmark, as seen on the external public-facing door of the baptistery, was designed by Lorenzo Ghiberti (between 1425-1452) and is an icon of the renaissance. The reliefs represent stories from the Old Testament. The visible heads are those of prophets. The doors displayed are now a copy of the original, with those being displayed in a local museum.

Cast bronze plaque of a Moors head with a bandana mounted on a shield background. This is the heraldic symbol of the French island of Corsica in the Mediterranean Sea. It's origins are slightly gruesome. According to legend, it originates from the 13th century when a young Corsican woman named Diana was captured by Moorish slavers who planned to sell her to the slave market of Granada in Spain. Her fiancé Pablo managed to free her and a battle ensued between Corsicans and Moors, during which the Moorish leader Mansour Ben Ismaïl was beheaded. His severed head then became the symbol of Corsica in remembrance of the event. The motif can be found all over the island, on flags and on buildings.
